P. Mauriat PMSA-500BXSK Professional Alto Saxophone

P.Mauriat PMSA-500BX Series Alto Sax

The P. Mauriat Black Pearl Series of saxophones are premiere, artist-level instruments that deliver immense tonal possibilities, yet also possess unparalleled aesthetic refinement. The large bore taper, combined with the enlarged bow and flared bell, enable resistance-free low notes and an omni-directional sound. The black nickel body plating helps deliver a dark, focused and silky sound. The 500 is ergonomically designed with left and right pinky tables, easy access side keys, extremely stable silver plated keywork with black pearl key touches and a ribbed construction give this saxophone unlimited possibilities.

With its stunning black nickel finish complemented by gleaming silver-plated keywork, the first thing you’ll notice about the P. Mauriat PMSA-500BX alto saxophone is its eye-catching aesthetics. Pick it up and blow a few notes, and you’ll delight to its touch and the luscious tone that projects effortlessly from the beautifully hand-engraved bell. A product of this horn’s unique alchemy — nickel silver body tubing — it’s a big, robust sound with a focused, compact tonal core that’s clear yet complex and rich with overtones. This is P. Mauriat’s sensational “Black Pearl” professional alto, and it’s nothing short of amazing. The PMSA-500BX comes with the excellent Super VI neck, which features a wide taper for freer blowing, adding to the sonic charms of this impressive horn. As with all P. Mauriat saxophones, exceptional build quality is baked in, with precision ergonomic keywork, excellent responsiveness, and superior intonation yielding an instrument that faithfully conveys every nuance of expression in your playing.
